A Virgin a Day: Day Eleven
We seek her wisdom, ask for guidance in matters mundane and monumental. Our Lady, what should I do? we ask, like those seeking guidance from the Oracle at Delphi. Sometimes her answer comes in the words of a song, in a resonant phrase in book, in the insightful advice of a friend. Sometimes it's just a sense of knowing a sense of the rightness of a course of conduct that hadn't been apparent before. She waits until we seek her help then pats her lap and beckons us settle in for some mothering. She smooths back our hair and rubs our forehead in little circles until our eyelids grow heavy and then she whispers just what we need to know. A Virgin a Day
